Best Practices for Zones and Groups

The more groups and zones you have, the more complicated the deployment

becomes.

Do some careful planning to make your organization both simple and useful.

Create groups of media players of the same model type. For example, the group

contains all Cisco DMP 4310Gs or all SV-4Ks.

Create zones of like-model groups for best results. Applying the same state across

multiple groups of different media player types can be problematic due to the

differences in content support among different media player models.

NOTE: If you find you must mix model groups in a zone, then be

sure that the content reflects the lowest common denominator of

support for the devices that you are mixing. Be sure to test your

content for expected behavior. Many things have to be taken into

account such as dual video, SWF support, and video walls.
